Integrate the solution of a the Matrix differential equation
I have:
$\dot{\textbf{x}}=A{\textbf{x}}$
where A is a nxn matrix.
This equation has solution:
$\textbf{x}(t)=e^{\textbf{A}t}\textbf{x}(0)$
A book i'm reading states that:
$\textbf{x}(t_{2})=e^{\...

exponential of matrix in linear differential equation
I am a bit confused about the following from my lecture note:
Suppose we have
\begin{equation}
\begin{aligned}
\frac{dx}{dt}&=-\epsilon y \\
\frac{dy}{dt}&=by+cx
\end{aligned}
\end{...

Stuck on matrix exponential problem [duplicate]
I want to show that the property $e^{tA}e^{tB}=e^{t(A+B)}$ implies that $AB=BA$. Here $A,B$ denotes matrices and $t\in \mathbb{R}$.
Im stuck, have tried to expand both sides with their taylor series ...

Prove that if $P^{-1}AP=diag[\lambda_j]$ then $e^{At}=Pdiag[e^{\lambda_j t}]P^{-1}$
I'm stuck in this exercise.
If $P^{-1}AP=diag[\lambda_j]$ then $e^{At}=Pdiag[e^{\lambda_j t}]P^{-1}$
This is what I've done:
$$P^{-1}AP=diag[\lambda_j]$$
$$\implies AP=Pdiag[\lambda_j]$$

Exponential of a non terminating matric
So I understand how to calculate the exponential of matrices that eventually terminate; however, how to approach the cases in which the matrix does not seem to truncate? For example with the matrix $M=...

How to calculate matrix exponential of a $2\times 2$ matrix with repeated e values
Specifically, I am trying to calculate the matrix exponential, $e^{At}$, where A = $\begin{bmatrix}-1 & 1\\-9 & 5\end{bmatrix}$. I calculated the the E values to be 2 with a multiplicity of 2 ...

solve initial value problem using exponential matrix
$x'' = 2 x' +6y +3$
$y' = -x' -2y$
subject the the initial condition
$x(0) = 0; x'(0) = 0; y(0) = 1$
The first part of the question is about finding $e^{At}$ of this matrix $A = \begin{bmatrix}

Exponentiation of a $2\times 2$ matrix
We know:
$$\exp(At)=I+ \sum^{\infty}_{n=1}\frac{A^nt^n}{n!}$$
Here $$A= \begin{pmatrix} 0 & 1 \\ -w^2 & 0\end{pmatrix}$$ is a $2\times 2$ matrix,
$I$ is identity matrix.
How to show:
$$\...

Exponential of matrix
So, I'm wondering if there is an easy way (as in not calculating the eigenvalues, Jordan canonical form, change of basis matrix, etc.) to calculate this exponential $e^{At}$
with $$A=\begin{pmatrix} 0&...

If $A$ is a $2\times 2$ matrix with a repeated eigenvalue $r$, then $\mathrm{e}^{At}=\mathrm{e}^{rt}\left[I+(A-rI)t\right]$
If $A$ is a $2\times 2$ matrix with a repeated eigenvalue $r$, show that $\mathrm{e}^{At}=\mathrm{e}^{rt}\left[I+(A-rI)t\right]$.
I have already been able to show that if $A$ is an arbitrary $2\...

How to compute time ordered Exponential?
So say you have a matrix dependent on a variable t:
$A(t)$
How do you compute $e^{A(t)}$ ?
It seems Sylvester's formula, my standard method of computing matrix exponentials can't be applied here ...

Show that $e^{t(A+B)} = e^{tA}e^{tB}$ for all $t \in \mathbb{R}$ if, and only if $AB = BA$.
Let A,B real or complex matrixes. Show that $e^{t(A+B)} = e^{tA}e^{tB}$ for all $t \in \mathbb{R}$ if, and only if $AB = BA$.
I demonstrated the reciprocal:
$\Leftarrow )$ The two equations are ...
